Recently, Yonder, a rewards credit card firm located in London, finished a large investment round with success.

IBS Intelligence reports that the company has received a fresh £23.4 million investment lead by investor Dan Jones through his venture firm Repeat. Other investors include Gareth Jefferies through RTP Global, Remus Brett through Latitude, LocalGlobe's sister fund, and others. Yonder's post-money valuation has surpassed £100m thanks to this new financial infusion.

 

Yonder is a player in the competitive FinTech space, providing its customers with a rewards credit card that is primarily designed to improve their travel, social, and city exploration experiences. The brand sets itself apart with innovative products like Flights and Stays, which let users utilize points for travel to any location and hotel in the globe with no limitations on the kind of airline, time, or place.

 

The recently obtained money is intended for a number of large-scale initiatives. Yonder intends to increase its presence in Europe and other foreign markets in addition to making substantial product line advancements that will improve its rewards program, especially with regard to travel-related perks.

 

Yonder has adopted a unique strategy to incentives since its spring 2022 launch by concentrating on mending customer ties with credit cards. It promotes prudent credit usage, assisting members in achieving improved financial prospects. Yonder’s product suite delivers dynamic monthly-changing incentives across several categories like food, entertainment, and lifestyle, with a special focus on travel.

 

Tim Chong, the CEO and co-founder of Yonder, emphasized the company's development path since their most recent fundraising round. We have expanded consistently since our Series A raise as demand for Yonder's youth program has skyrocketed. We have used our momentum to our advantage to obtain this sizeable fundraising round, which will assist in financing several key turning points in Yonder's development.

 

"More than a fifth of our members' spend each month is on travel, and the no FX fees abroad, points earned abroad, and worldwide family travel insurance we offer already make Yonder a great companion for travelers," Chong said, highlighting the strategic development of their travel perks. However, with the introduction of Flights and Stays, we are carrying out our objective and are eager to continue expanding our product line in this field.
